Answer:

174879 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that The Elmina Wilson Company produces spaghetti sauce.

Fixed costs =1,329,050 $

Selling price per  64 oz=[tex]12.40[/tex]

Contribution = S-V=Selling price - var cost = 7.60 $

Break even poin in no of units = Fixed cost/Contribution per unit

=[tex]\frac{1,39,050}{7.60} \\=174878.94\\=174879[/tex]
